Author Description

The Memoirs of an American Egyptian Goat: Going Back Home is a novel based on a true story. It is delineated; from the vantage point of a US born goat that used to live in the Midwest. It describes the voyage of the goat to Egypt to which its ancestors were traced. The goat's journey and adventures in the land of its ancestors is presented in a style that merges the literary work with the visual art depiction of events and scenes. That makes it possible for the visually oriented readers to enjoy the novel as much as those who get a thrill out of literary rendering of events.The novel can be vocally narrated by an individual while the audiences are going through the visual presentation to follow the unfolding of events. One may enjoy reading the words first to reach the end of the story and then go through the artwork to reconstruct the story as being written or newly construct an alternative version of the novel with a different ending. Others may like to enjoy thumbing through novels they read in the past to recall "how the story goes" without scanning through the whole written text. Graphic illustrations are more expressive than mere words. Each rendition depicts more than what a single story can reveal.
